Installation

• Install Citizens 2
• Place Builder.jar file in /plugins directory.

• Start Server
• Create NPC and give the Builder trait.

/npc create Bob --trait builder

Permissions

• builder.*
• builder.[name of command]

Commands

/builder load [schematic] - Loads a .schematic file. simply use the name of the schematic. Example

/builder load house

/builder origin - Sets the origin of the builder's projects to the builder's current location. Allows you to re-build in the same spot. If this is not set the builder will always start from his current location.

/builder origin clear - Clears the saved build origin.

/builder origin schematic - Sets the origin of the builder's projects to the origin of the loaded schematic. Best used for schematics created from the builder's world with worldedit.

/builder mark - Places a glowstone block at the 4 corners of the footprint, then returns to the origin, so you can see where it's going to build.

/builder build - Start building the schematic.

/builder cancel - Cancel a build job.

/builder info - View a Builder's loaded schematic name and size, as well as the builder's options.

/builder ignoreair - Toggles the builder to not set air blocks, false by default. Use this to build into existing block structure.

/builder ignoreliquid - Toggles the builder to not set water or lava. Use this if the schematic comes with un-contained liquids.

/builder check - Display a list of all the block types/count of the loaded schematic.

/builder compare - Display a list of all the block types/counts of the loaded schematic and compare to the player's inventory. Not really useful for anything, yet.

Usage

• .schematic files should be placed in the /plugins/Builder/schematics/ directory.
• Position the builder, or set the builder's origin, to the center of the footpoint you want to build before calling build. The size of the schematic is shown upon load.
• It is highly recommended to set the Origin before building. This will allow you to cancel the build and restart it later, the builder will pick up where he left off.
• The builder will ignore any empty space underneath the schematic object so that it will always rest on the ground where the builder starts.
• The builder will not attempt to replace blocks that are already set properly, this means you can use a builder to quickly 'restore' any changed blocks in something he has previously built.
  • To set up a builder to maintain an existing building:
    • Select the building with worldedit and save it as a schematic.
    • Copy the schematic to the builder's schematics directory.
    • Load the schematic to a builder and call /builder origin schematic.
    • Call /builder build and the builder will place any missing blocks or destroy new ones.

Planned Additions

• Rotate/flip schematic before build.
• Economy costs for building.
• Require materials for building.
• More commands for info, area marking.
• Configuration for schematics directory, default options.
